The dnscrypt-proxy service relays regular DNS queries to
a DNSCrypt enabled upstream resolver.
The traffic between the client and the upstream resolver is
encrypted and authenticated, which may mitigate the risk of
MITM attacks and third-party snooping (assuming a trustworthy
upstream).
Though dnscrypt-proxy can run as a standalone DNS client,
the recommended setup is to use it as a forwarder for a
caching DNS client.
To use dnscrypt-proxy as a forwarder for dnsmasq, do
```nix
{
# ...
networking.nameservers = [ "127.0.0.1" ];
networking.dhcpcd.extraConfig = "nohook resolv.conf";
services.dnscrypt-proxy.enable = true;
services.dnscrypt-proxy.localAddress = "127.0.0.1";
services.dnscrypt-proxy.port = 40;
services.dnsmasq.enable = true;
services.dnsmasq.extraConfig = ''
no-resolv
server=127.0.0.1#40
listen-address=127.0.0.1
'';
# ...
}
```
